Answer

$0.0018N*m$

Work Step by Step

We know that $\alpha=\frac{\omega^2-\omega_{\circ}^2}{2\Delta \theta}$ $\alpha=\frac{(450rev/min \times 2\pi rad/rev\times 1min/60s)^2-(0)^2}{2(3.0rev\times 2rad/rev)}=59rad/s^2$ Now $I=\frac{1}{2}(0.017)(0.060)^2=3.1\times 10^{-5}Kg*m^2$ The torque can be determined as $\tau=I\alpha$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\tau=(3.1\times 10^{-5})(59rad/s^2)=0.0018N*m$
